Most of us spend a lot of time trying to think our way through things. I work with people who want to bring the rest of themselves into that conversation as well — the body, the breath, all the parts.
I'm Rachel Posner — yoga therapist and somatic educator. I work with people when talk alone isn't enough.
I'm a certified yoga therapist and yoga instructor with an MA in Counseling, and I've spent 25 years offering one-on-one sessions, retreats, group immersions, and trainings for wellness practitioners. I don't come from one tradition or one lens. I move between the clinical, the somatic, and the scientific depending on what the person in front of me actually needs.
What makes my work different is the lens I bring to it — a unique blend of nervous system regulation, self-compassion, somatic parts-work and deep-imagery. I facilitate a body/mind experience that helps you listen for what's underneath and find the answers that are already inside of you.
You may be carrying a lot!
Stressful events, difficult emotions and chronic tension that live in the body long after your mind has moved on.
Low level fear and anxiety that make you feel uncomfortable or unsafe.
And maybe a feeling that talk alone has taken you as far as it can.
Through our work together, people experience:
A deeper sense of calm and safety
Greater capacity to recognize and regulate their own nervous system
A kinder, more trustworthy relationship with themselves
Practical tools they can use independently, long after our sessions end
This work is for you if you're ready to bring your whole self into the conversation.
You might be someone who has done therapy, read the books, and understands yourself pretty well intellectually — but something still feels stuck or unresolved in your body.
Or a wellness practitioner who wants to deepen your own somatic experience and bring these tools into your work.
Or simply someone who feels the pull toward something more embodied and doesn't quite have the language for it yet.
If any of that resonates, you're in the right place.
"What's most amazing is that you are actually doing all the work and Rachel's just guiding — which is why it's so much more powerful. I have the answers. It's just finding them." — Heather
